Saju is an amazing person. He listens and offers advise that actually works best for you.

Written by C.H. on May 12, 2018 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship, intimacy-related, sleeping, and self esteem

He is attentive, asks all the necessary questions and provides feedback accordingly. Would highly recommend him to anyone needing counseling.

Written by B.R. on Apr 30, 2018 after counseling with Saju for 5 months on issues concerning relationship

I have been working with Saju for close to seven months now. I don’t know where I would be right now in my life without his help. I am so glad I reached out and even happier that I ended up with Saju! He is so easy to talk to. He gives great perspective when I need it and is always checking in to see how things are going. I really couldn’t have asked for a better experience with him & BetterHelp.

Saju is there when you need him and its very comfortable to talk to him

Written by K.E. on Mar 28, 2018 after counseling with Saju for 6 months on issues concerning relationship, family, and intimacy-related

One of the most important things I find in Saju is that he is non-judgmental. He listens, asks questions and listens to the answers, and lets me talk without interruption. He responds quickly when I contact him, and is quick to schedule a call if it is necessary.

Written by C.H. on Mar 22, 2018 after counseling with Saju for 9 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety

I had a great experience with Saju.
He helped me adress lots of things that were basically out of control in my life.
He helped me understand once more this is my life, and not a life owned by others. He taught me how to set boundaries and be more assertive and to start addressing my problems instead of allowing them to crush me.

Thank Saju, you always have a place in my heart.

Written by D.A. on Mar 03, 2018 after counseling with Saju for 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, sleeping, self esteem, and career

Saju is amazing and has helped keep me grounded while progressing in life. He helps me figure out the right path to take and has helped me prioritize self care. God definitely lined me up with the right help!

Written by K.A. on Feb 22, 2018 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, family, grief, intimacy-related, sleeping, self esteem, and career

Saju is an excellent counselor and is helping me navigate a rough patch. His experience across a wide range of areas including life transitions, relationships, anxiety, depression is a great asset. He is non-judgmental but also not afraid of calling things out that I might not have seen otherwise.

Saju is a fantastic support and personable therapist. You are safe in his kindness, directness, and expertise!

Written by F.R. on Feb 18, 2018 after counseling with Saju for 4 months on issues concerning depression, relationship, intimacy-related, self esteem, and anger

Saju always balances the tendency to globalize a situation with a good dose of reality. He won’t allow you to walk a way from a conversation without challenging faulty logic yet he is respectful and empathetic. I like him a lot.

Written by M.I. on Feb 17, 2018 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship, sleeping, self esteem, anger, career, and bipolar

Thank you for everything so far Saju!!!

Written by A.. on Feb 16, 2018 after counseling with Saju for 9 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship, family, sleeping, self esteem, and anger

I had a wonderful experience with Saju Abraham and I have been growing and changing a lot since I started with him. I really thank him for his efforts.

Written by J.A. on Feb 13, 2018 after counseling with Saju for 6 months on issues concerning relationship, self esteem, and career

Saju is very astute in picking out the details of what you share and then helping to connect the dots to our emotional state. He listens and pays attention which I think is crucial. After all, we need to be heard. :) He comes across as a down-to-earth guy which also makes it easier for us to relate to. I’m also glad that he has an open mind and connects to our beliefs rather than imposing his own - which was one of the fears I had that made me avoid counseling initially. I’d recommend him to anyone. Thanks so much Saju.

Written by L.A. on Dec 22, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 4 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship, family, intimacy-related, anger, and bipolar

Saju has been of great comfort, support and help throughout a hard situation I found myself in. His level headedidness and focus on what’s best for me gave me confidence to withstand issues that arise and deal with them accordingly. I can not recommend him enough.

Written by R.Y. on Nov 23, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 3 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, self esteem, and anger

Saju is great, I feel he really understands me and whats going on in my life. He also is good at telling me things that I need to understand and need to work on. I feel comfortable telling him anything.

Written by S.T. on Nov 20, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, intimacy-related, and self esteem

Saju is an excellent counselor who always listens and provides lots of tools for learning, understanding, and growth.

Written by C.R. on Nov 17, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, relationship, and self esteem

Only a few conversations, and Saju "read" me and helped me with my situation. He is very good in what he is doing and you can put your trust in him.

Written by C.A. on Nov 10, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 3 months on issues concerning family, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting, self esteem, and anger

Saju was attentive and I thank him for his time.

Written by B.E. on Oct 26, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 4 months on issues concerning addictions

I appreciate Saju - he feels me out and doesn't get pushy. I don't feel judged. He is a smart dude that knows what he is talking about.

Written by M.A. on Oct 15, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, grief, sleeping, parenting, self esteem, career, and bipolar

Saju is amazing! I tried a couple of psychiatrists but never felt 100% comfortable and listened too. When Betterhelp matched me up with Saju it was different, Saju really listens and makes you feel important. He has helped me a lot with my anxiety and being aware of my behaviours and where they are coming from. I strongly recommend Saju for others who are looking for help!

Written by C.H. on Aug 29, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship, family, intimacy-related, self esteem, and anger

I just began working with Saju, but he presents very well and seems very knowledgeable with regards to how to assist me with my issues. He is direct and may not always tell me what I want to hear, which is a refreshing change of pace because he makes me think outside of the box. I would highly recommend Saju.

Written by R.A. on Aug 02, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, grief, intimacy-related, sleeping, self esteem, and anger

Saju is very easy to discuss issues with and has helped by offering us some books to read together. Glad we're building a health relationship that we both can trust in. This helps my relationship with my spouse by letting her know I'm trying to be better. Saju has started me off on the right track. - Thanks

Written by J.A. on Jul 21, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, family, sleeping, self esteem, career, and bipolar

Saju is a great therapist he has helped me realize that there are two sides to a coin. Even when you just live on one side of the coin, it does not mean the other side does not exist. This has encouraged me to try new things and meet new people along the way.

Written by T.I. on Jul 16, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, grief, sleeping, and self esteem

As a person who is very apprehensive with expressing myself and exposing my vulnerabilities, Saju provides security, comfort, treatment, and encouragement in this journey. He is very passionate about tackling the issues at hand and I totally appreciate it.

Written by N.A. on Jul 03, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks

Saju is not my first counselor/therapist. I like him very much and would say that he compares favorably to my previous experiences. What I notice about him is his laser-like focus and concentration. He listens and pays attention to what I say in my written messages. I am feeling so much better after only two weeks.

Written by J.A. on Jun 28, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, family, intimacy-related, sleeping, self esteem, and anger

Saju has been extremely beneficial in my path to becoming emotionally healthy. He challenges me to journal my emotional health and responses to situations in my life. I feel like I have a therapy partner who understands me, understands my concerns and needs, and offers hope and enlightenment. I am learning tools to treat myself through our conversations. I enjoy being able to communicate with him via messages on BetterHelp and our twice monthly phone sessions.

Written by A.N. on Jun 27, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, grief, intimacy-related, sleeping, self esteem, and career

Saju is a guy who is extremely good at what he does. He's helped me out a lot especially when I had no one to turn to, the fact that he was Indian, the same nationality I was made me feel extremely comfortable. I was extremely skeptical of how BetterHelp could help me from a counsellor who was so far away. It was good for its purpose and Saju helped me through some dark days. You know you're in good hands when you have Saju, and I'm all the more happy for it.

Written by K.I. on Jun 27, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship, intimacy-related, self esteem, anger, and career

Saju doesn't glaze over block-issues such as depression, addiction, etc. He has a tailored insight to very specific issues such as Limeracy, which until now, I didn't think I'd find on BetterHelp having tried the site twice before. He replies everyday and really understands. He's been so quick to make a difference and a genuine passion for what he does makes him stand out. Finally found a good one!

Written by L.E. on Jun 23, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship, grief, intimacy-related, and self esteem

Saju is a wonderful counselor, taking time to ask questions to get at the heart of the issues. He not only has the training and experience as a counselor, but a great deal of wisdom, which is something you don't learn in school. I appreciate that he made sure of my level of comfort and Christian walk before connecting his advice to the Bible; his ability to dive deep into the Word has been a huge blessing to me. I highly recommend!

I was really nervous about using online counseling, and Saju has been wonderful. His expertise with military issues is super helpful. I'm very happy I have been paired with him.

Written by S.T. on Jun 21, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, family, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related, parenting, self esteem, and anger

So far I am very grateful for the support given and guidance from Saju. I am finally coming to understand after many years what has caused my emotional problems and starting to understand how to manage them in my future. Thanks Saju!

Saju is very intuitive and has genuine concern and helpful techniques to see what the problem is. He listens and returns very helpful suggestions. I would recommend him to any man that needs help becoming a man for the people in his life.

Saju is always willing to help and he is someone I can really look up to. He is very similar to myself, so I find it very easy to connect with him. He is also very available, even during times when it seems that he shouldn't. I'm very glad I was paired with Saju!

Written by A.S. on Jun 07, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 1 month on issues concerning stress, anxiety, family, sleeping, self esteem, and career

Saju's great—very practical and good at addressing issues one by one, and good at sensing when another issue might be on the horizon or lying beneath the surface. I experienced a huge relief when we worked through my main issue (social anxiety) and I use the tools and advice provided by Saju daily to see and feel a big difference.

Written by A.M. on Jun 07, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 3 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, and relationship

So far Saju seems the right person for my case.. he is very caring and most importantly has lot of knowledge in spiritual / religious matter which are quite intriguing for me ..
After being in so many therapy and quitting , I feel with the patience and wisdom of Saju , I have the feeling this time, I will go through the end of the therapy and hopefully heal completely as I am a perfectionist :)
Thank you Saju for being you! God bless you

Even we are just in the beginning, I feel that he is there to lend me an ear and time
way to go, Sir Saju!

Written by B.R. on May 02, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 3 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, and sleeping

Saju has been a wonderful help the last month. He has gone out of his way to schedule sessions with me when it was convenient for me. He has a lot of experience and seems very enthusiastic about his job and about helping people. He's happy to listen and help you ask those important questions of yourself. His positive demeanor is always nice as well! I would definitely recommend him as a therapist.

Saju is awesome...he is understanding and has no judgment or prejudice.

Written by T.R. on Apr 27, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self esteem, and anger

Saju has been a huge help for me. For such a long time I always tried to deal with my issues in silence and Saju has helped me feel comfortable to deal with them directly and find peace and freedom. His recommendations on how to overcome addiction, anxiety, PTSD and shame have worked very well for me. What I like about Saju is he tailors your needs and develops strategies that work. I still have a long ways to go but I'm finding the confidence that I can overcome it all and find the peace I have long searched for.

Written by D.A. on Apr 18, 2017 after counseling with Saju for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship, intimacy-related, and sleeping

Saju is very smart and he has used that intelligence to give me helpful advice and new perspectives on life. He is very polite and makes me feel cared for, and he gives very thorough advice on the topics that I tell him about.
